Ninety-five

  • My fingers clamber over the keys in an attempt to give my thanks, but the truth is I have never been as eloquent as I'd like to fancy myself as. My body shakes and all I can think is, ''no, no, no, it's not real, no, it didn't happen. I made it up! I swear it! I swear it!" but your voice on the other end makes it all too real. All I want to feel is the fast motion of my legs running free in an open skirt, just trying to get away. Truthfully, I still just want to try and get away, but I know you're right. I know I must go back, I know I must face these demons and feel. I must feel, the one thing I've had the most struggle with. I can't focus on the negative though, I can't do that to myself anymore. At the end of this, I will come through the tunnel, a lot stronger, a lot healthier. I won't flinch as much and be so afraid, I will be a little closer to okay. I cannot thank you enough, forever I will be grateful. I know I say this a lot, but I don't know where I'd be if you weren't here, to figuratively hold my hand through this, to hear your voice on the other end of my cellular phone. I'm going to emerge from this, better than what I was when I began. I'm going to say everything I can think to, and not hold so much back this time. It is most comforting to know you aren't leaving because of this, that you are still the same. Now look, I've gone and used too many you's and many I's. It's time enough to say goodbye.
